I'm thinking of buying a monocle. 🧐 Probably the one below.🤔 It can be bought in 1.5 or 2.00 prescription. My correct reading glass/lens prescription is +1.75, but either would do.

There is this one, which can be bought in my +1.75 prescription, but it's 120 pounds for the monocle and case, which is sold separately.

If you want the top one, I'd get it in 2.00, s eyesight tends to worsen as you age, so if you are now 1.75, you are much more likely to vary towards 2.0 than towards 1.5.

Bear in mind you could buy a +2 close up lens for a camera for maybe a tenner. Typical diameter would be 49mm or 52mm which might be a touch on the big size, but a quick ebay search found a 34mm. Alternatively go to specsavers and ask them to run up a 1.75 in whatever diameter seems sensible.

But do Specsavers sell prescription monocles? I've typed it in but I can't find anything about them selling monocles. I suppose I could call into Accrington Specsavers later today and ask if they sell such things. Even if they do though, I think they'd be more practical looking (boring) looking, rather then 'quirky'. 🧐

A monocle? Have you ever worried you're about to disappear up the backside of your own caricature

yes go for it Accy!

I intend to do so! 🧐
